Beautiful animal, but not sure if I would like the job of grooming it.

To all those who were kind enough to pray for our court outcome, my husband did get a merciful magistrate as Coravee prayed and there was no conviction placed just a fine. God is good.

"'Thank you' is the best prayer that anyone could say. I say that one a lot. Thank you expresses extreme gratitude, humility, understanding." Alice Walker

"The greatest sense of love, which is available for us at all times, is God's love." Stormie Omartian

And that is how we feel tonight, truly loved of God. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the care, concern and love we have received from those on this wonderful site. God bless all of you. Hugs.

Wonderful news, Aussie. Even if we weren't part of praying for you both I'm sure God would have been good to you who love Him so. Thank you for letting us be a part of your answered prayer.

Good to hear that the court outcome went well; having been married for 50 years and 1 day, and having raised 8 children, I can assure you that I spent many hours on my knees. But, God is good and knew what my limitations were. My husband has been gone nearly 12 years, now, and I miss him more every day.

Aussie, that's wonderful news.

We pray that God will pull your hubby out of his funk and set him on a pleasant and peaceful path.

God is all things good, in perfection.

So happy to hear the court outcome! Still praying for your car situation and both of your health issues. God is good!

We had a collie when I was a child, and his fur was just like this. I remember the yard always had large clumps of fur on all the bushes!

Marine, my husband has been gone just over 12 years, and I feel the same about mine. And boy, don't we learn a lot fast when we become widows! So many complications to life.

My husband pays all the bills. I sure don't look forward to that job if he should die before me. We spend so much time watching movies I am afraid when he goes I won't be able to bear watching any more. If it's as bad as my son't going (or worse, probably) I may have to transform myself into a duck or something to avoid being haunted by loss. Everything will remind me of him.

So true dbnc, I was on my own for 31 years before I re-married and though I have had to give up a lot of my independence, I have a wonderful God-provided husband who is special in so many ways. Hugs.

Aussie, so glad to hear that it went so well. THANK YOU Jesus for all your blessings!

Sheepdogs are very smart and respond to their masters' whistles when rounding up sheep. Sheep-herding competitions are popular in parts of England and Scotland. One of my favorite stories about this activity is "Only One Woof" by James Herriot, an English veterinarian and author. His most popular book is ALL CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL.

Zsa-Zsa is a great name for this doggie. Let us know when your grandson arrives. Grandkids are wonderful

James Herriot is a wonderful writer. I own several of his books. Be safe.

I like the James Herriot books also. And I have a Sheltie. He is certainly not as lovely as this one, but still pretty, however dumb as a rock! Very unusual as most of them are extremely intelligent. But I love my Theodore. He was a "Gift of God" (That is what Theodore means.) And he truly loves me.
